Successful candidates are expected to engage in collaborative and independent statistical research. Key areas of research that are particularly desirable for this position are: survival analysis, competing risks methodology, transplantation outcomes, graft versus host disease, immunotherapy, and clinical trial design (early to mid-phase). Other desirable areas of expertise include cancer survivorship, late effects, infectious complications, cumulative burden of morbidity, longitudinal methods, and genomic/proteomic research.
Faculty are expected to perform their primary activities on-site at Fred Hutch.
The rich biostatistics environment at the center includes over 70 PhD-level biostatisticians (member-track faculty and staff scientists) across the Clinical Research, Public Health Sciences, and Vaccine and Infectious Diseases Divisions. Biostatisticians across the center also engage in collaborative and independent statistical research, including efforts with coordinating and statistical and data management centers for the Women's Health Initiative, the SWOG Cancer Research Network, the Cancer Screening Research Network, the HIV Vaccine Trials Network, and the HIV Prevention Trials Network.
